[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ummm parents of teens can sleep….so I can’t can’t can’t freaking wait!!!!! To have teens!! Imagine going to bed and waking up not at 6 am! And wow, no potty breaks or bad dreams or wondering if it’s a 5 wake-up night or 1 wake up night or none.

Everything else everyone wrote I am ignoring, you all forget how it is to not sleep. Nothing else matters. [/quote]

Yes, teens sleep in. But you won't be able to sleep once they get a license. I haven't slept well in months since my teen got his license. [/quote]

Eh I don’t know Im still not convinced by any of these stories, with sleep I could take any of this stuff on. Meanwhile last night was a 3 wake-up night (potty, blanket, stuffy nose) and our day started at 5:17 AM. I would trade you any type of teen with boyfriend or grilfriend or grunting or license or leaving lights on just so I can go to bed at 10 and not wake up and sleep “in” until 7. That’s all I want and I can’t have it. You all must have forgotten that. Sleep deprivation is a torture technique. Grumpy teens with problems are not. [/quote]

You miss the point that unless you are taking a sleeping pill after drinking a bottle of wine, you aren't getting good sleep with teens. So you've got the same issue with not enough sleep but instead of nighttime potty visits and lost blankies, you are dealing with teens sneaking out at night, drug use, having sex, and other major things that have big consequences.[/quote]
